Get ready for the wonderful musical and personal journey of Seymour Bernstein. "Seymour: An Introduction" is a loving portrait of a virtuoso pianist who became a beloved teacher and is still giving lessons in his mid-80s.

Directed by Ethan Hawke, "Seymour" is mostly an observational film in which we watch as Bernstein goes about his business, and listen to his anecdotes about himself (including his experiences in the Korean War), his family, colleagues and students.
